Case in point?

That attack is exactly why almost nobody of significant size posts anymore. Everything has to be about attacking people and bringing them down and flooding the threads with a negative message. It's not worth it for program owners to put themselves out there because there is always a negative pissed off webmaster lurking just waiting for them to post and then just attack and attack and attack and bring up everything they could whether it's old or new whether it's significant or insignificant.
I know I've cut back huge on my posts because it's almost impossible to get into a discussion without some of our business decisions being questioned. Even though they aren't part of the conversation they usually find a way of being brought in to try to make us look bad...
